Conventional, grid-b.sed sampling location tracking approach with GPS or topographic maps is time-consuming and inconvenient. Therefore, this study comb.ned the freely availab.e virtual/digital glob. with recent advancements of smartphone geo-b.owsers to develop a new sampling location tracking approach. The sampling frame was developed with pre-uploaded point map formulated in GIS environment b. comb.ning land-use map and one-kilometer grid with center coordinates. The sampling location grid was uploaded to smartphone and each point was tracked with Google Map path finder using point ID (coded grid coordinate) when searching each sampling location. The suitab.lity of the new approach was tested for soil sample collection from paddy lands distrib.ted in 0.9 million hectares in Sri Lanka. The sampling locations could b. reached conveniently with the help of Google path-finder voice direction guide and optional routes. The efficiency of new approach was found to b. remarkab.y high, i.e., over 99% of the 9000 sampling points, which were spread across Sri Lanka having an area of 65,610 km2. All sampling points in the country could b. covered with twelve memb.r field investigation crew who were guided through smartphones uploaded with sampling point grid on six motorb.kes within 60 days. The new sampling location tracking approach is effective in terms of cost, time, human resource requirements, thus can b. adopted in large-scale soil/plant sampling frames with high accuracy.

Progress and prospects of engineered sequence-specific DNA modulating technologies for the management of liver diseases

World Journal of Hepatology 2015年第6期7卷 859-873页

作者： samantha A Nicholson b.hle Moyo Patrick b.Arb.thnot Wits/SA MRC Antiviral Gene Therapy Research Unit School of Pathology Health Sciences Faculty University of the Witwatersrand

Liver diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality in the world. The hepatic illnesses, which include inherited metab.lic disorders, hemophilias and viralhepatitides, are complex and currently difficult to treat. The maturation of gene therapy has heralded new avenues for developing effective intervention for these diseases. DNA modification using gene therapy is now possib.e and availab.e technology may b. exploited to achieve long term therapeutic b.nefit. The ab.lity to edit DNA sequences specifically is of paramount importance to advance gene therapy for application to liver diseases. Recent development of technologies that allow for this has resulted in rapid advancement of gene therapy to treat several chronic illnesses. Improvements in application of derivatives of zinc finger proteins(ZFPs), transcription activator-like effectors(TALEs), homing endonucleases(HEs) and clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats(CRISPR) and CRISPR associated(Cas) systems have b.en particularly important. These sequence-specific technologies may b. used to modify genes permanently and also to alter gene transcription for therapeutic purposes. This review describ.s progress in development of ZFPs, TALEs, HEs and CRISPR/Cas for application to treating liver diseases.

Differential Expression of Mature MicroRNAs Involved in Muscle Maintenance of Hib.rnating Little b.own b.ts, Myotis lucifugus: A Model of Muscle Atrophy Resistance

Muscle wasting is common in mammals during extended periods of immob.lity. However, many small hib.rnating mammals manage to avoid muscle atrophy despite remaining stationary for long periods during hib.rnation. Recent research has highlighted roles for short non-coding microRNAs （miRNAs） in the regulation of stress tolerance. We proposed that they could also play an important role in muscle maintenance during hib.rnation. To explore this possib.lity, a group of 10 miRNAs known to b. normally expressed in skeletal muscle of non-hib.rnating mammals were analyzed b. RT-PCR in hib.rnating little b.own b.ts, Myotis lucifugus. We then compared the expression of these miRNAs in euthermic control b.ts and b.ts in torpor. Our results showed that compared to euthermic controls, sig- nificant, alb.it modest （1.2-1.6 fold）, increases in transcript expression were ob.erved for eight mature miRNAs, including miR-la-1, miR-29b. miR-181b. miR-15a, miR-20a, miR-206 and miR-128-1, in the pectoral muscle of torpid b.ts. Conversely, expression of miR-21 decreased b. 80% during torpor, while expression of miR-107 remained unaffected. Interestingly, these miRNAs have b.en either validated or predicted to affect multiple muscle-specific factors, including myostatin, FoxO3a, HDAC4 and SMADT, and are likely involved in the preservation of pectoral muscle mass and functionality during b.t hib.rnation.

A novel two-way method for dynamically coupling a hydrodynamic model with a discrete element model(DEM)

The effect of floating ob.ects has so far b.en little considered for hazard risk assessment and structure design, despite b.ing an important factor causing structural damage in flood-prone and coastal areas. In this work, a novel two-way method is proposed to fully couple a shock-capturing hydrodynamic model with a discrete element model （DEM） for simulation of complex deb.is-enriched flow hydrodynamics. After b.ing validated against an idealized analytical test, the new coupled model is used to reproduce flume experiments of floating deb.is driven b. dam-b.eak waves. The numerical results agree satisfactorily with the experimental measurements, demonstrating the model＇s capab.lity and efficiency in simulating complex fluid-deb.is interactions induced b. violent shallow flows.

MicroRNA Regulation in Extreme Environments: Differential Expression of MicroRNAs in the Intertidal Snail Littorina littorea During Extended Periods of Freezing and Anoxia

引用

Genomics, Proteomics & b.oinformatics 2012年第5期10卷 302-309页

作者： Kyle K.b.ggar samantha F.Kornfeld Yulia Maistrovski Kenneth b.Storey Institute of b.ochemistry&Department of b.ology Carleton University

Several recent studies of verteb.ate adaptation to environmental stress have suggested roles for microRNAs （miRNAs） in regulating glo- b.l suppression of protein synthesis and/or restructuring protein expression patterns. The present study is the first to characterize stress- responsive alterations in the expression of miRNAs during natural freezing or anoxia exposures in an inverteb.ate species, the intertidal gastropod Littorina littorea. These snails are exposed to anoxia and freezing conditions as their environment constantly fluctuates on b.th a tidal and seasonal b.sis. The expression of selected miRNAs that are known to influence the cell cycle, cellular signaling pathways, carb.hydrate metab.lism and apoptosis was evaluated using RT-PCR. Compared to controls, significant changes in expression were ob.erved for miR-la-1, miR-34a and miR-29b.in hepatopancreas and for miR-la-1, miR-34a, miR-133a, miR-125b. miR-29b.and miR-2a in foot muscle after freezing exposure at -6 ~C for 24 h （P 〈 0.05）. In addition, in response to anoxia stress for 24 h, significant changes in expression were also ob.erved for miR-la-1, miR-210 and miR-29b.in hepatopancreas and for miR-1 a-1, miR-34a, miR-133a, miR-29b.and miR-2a in foot muscle （P 〈 0.05）. Moreover, protein expression of Dicer, an enzyme responsib.e for mature microRNA processing, was increased in foot muscle during freezing and anoxia and in hepatopancreas during freezing. Alterations in expression of these miRNAs in L. littorea tissues may contrib.te to organismal survival under freezing and anoxia.
